If you're looking for the real deal, the Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue absolutely has you covered. Following in the path and reputation of one of the world's most beloved and coveted electric guitars, this Epiphone "Inspired by Gibson Custom" model takes its inspiration from a pretty famous source – the 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard. This Epiphone model brings together much of what makes the 1959 Les Paul Standard so compelling, and for that, we can't help but be grateful.

There's quite a bit to explore with this "Inspired by Gibson Custom" model that you might find familiar if you're a 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard fan. This all starts out with a genuine mahogany body taking the classic Gibson Les Paul single-cutaway form. A AAA flamed maple veneer top matches with this genuine mahogany for an effortless balance of warmth and brightness – the kind you know and love from the Les Paul.

While original 1959 Les Paul Standards were constructed similarly to their 1960 brethren, a key distinction was their shape of their necks. The "Inspired by Gibson Custom" model drops in with a one-piece mahogany neck taking that cue. A one-piece mahogany neck lands on this Epiphone in a 1959 Rounded C Medium profile, filling the hand with a chunkier, vintage-inspired grip. Along with this neck, a bound rosewood fingerboard joins in on the equation for fast and fluid fretting across twenty-two frets.

For its voice, this Epiphone 1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue introduces its star players. Two American-made Gibson Custombucker humbucking pickups with Alnico 3 magnets get in formation for summoning authentic Gibson humbucking warmth and breath for matching with any player's sensibilities. Hand-wired to CTS potentiometers and Luxe Bumblebee paper-in-oil capacitors, these pickups offer great versatility and expression as they invite players to mix through their spectrum of voices.

Hardware makes this guitar even more marvelous. Onboard, a GraphTech nut and Epiphone Deluxe Single Ring tuning machines with keystone buttons meet past the Gibson-style "open book" headstock. At the scale's opposite end, an ABR-1 Tune-O-Matic bridge matches with a historic-style aluminum tailpiece for grounding strings stably and insuring fluid and responsive playing. An Epiphone brown hardshell case travels with this "Inspired by Gibson Custom" model.

As a throwback to one of Gibson's timeless classics, this Epiphone "Inspired by Gibson Custom" model is an honest and authentic representation of Gibson's iconic Les Paul Standard fitted for anybody.
